The Netherlands to host Freiberg Leather Days

The 6th edition of Freiberg Leather Days will take place outside Germany for the first time, in Oisterwijk, The Netherlands.

Co-organised by VGCT and FILK, the Freiberg based Research Institute of Leather and Plastic Sheeting, the event will be held on June 21-22, 2017. Those in the field of tanning, leather research and technology, or related field, wishing to present new ideas, knowledge, or applications are welcome to submit papers by February 24, 2017.
